Flow Coefficient Calculator (KVS)

Calculate the required KVS value for valve selection

System Parameters

How to use this calculator

1. Enter your system's flow rate in m³/h

2. Enter the pressure drop across the valve in kPa

3. Select fluid type and temperature

4. Click Calculate to get the required KVS value

5. Review recommended valve models that meet your requirements

Formula Used

KVS = Q / √(Δp / ρ)

KVS = Q / √(Δp / ρ), where Q is flow rate, Δp is pressure drop, and ρ is relative density
